Anyone who likes proper Test match batting can't but feel delighted with Pujara's comeback innings.

Superb test hundred from Cheteshwar Pujara under very challenging conditions, one to savour! #SLvIND

Class permanent, form temporary: good to see Pujara score a ton. How he could be dropped for first 2 tests, we will never know.

I've been waiting for you, Mr Pujara

I've been waiting for them to let you out, again

I've been waiting for a day of Test cricket as this.

Guess this hundred sort of guarantees Pujara's place for the second innings! #SLvIND

He just grinded and grinded and grinded to bring this treasury century with hardwork and self belief well played Pujara..#SLvsInd

A comeback hundred for Pujara! Providing the stability that Indians fans hoped he would once the greats of the previous generation retired

When other players were enjoying summer vacations via playing IPL Pujara was playing county Cricket & today is the output.

Comebacks are always tougher than debuts…add to that a difficult pitch & batting in an unfamiliar position. Pujara, you're a star 👏👍🙏

Pujara's hundred will embarras the Indian tour selectors much more than the Lankan bowlers

— Gautam Bhattacharya (@gbsaltlake) August 29, 2015

Pujara's case is that of a classical test batsman who's sacrificed to favour a more flamboyant player. Story of Indian cricket. Not correct!

That is some century from Cheteshwar Pujara. He's 101 not out out of India's 7-219 in Colombo. LIVE: http://t.co/xZnFq7BNuL #SLvIND
